Neil Young, from the song, “Ohio”
“Tin soldiers and Nixon coming,
We’re finally on our own.
This summer I hear the drumming,
Four dead in Ohio.
“Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are cutting us down
Should have been done long ago.
What if you knew her
And found her dead on the ground
How can you run when you know?”

“It had long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things.”
